1. Download the equalizer presets using the following command
wget http://www.mikesplanet.net/files/equalizers.xml.gz
2. Install equalizer presets in Banshee 1.2 (Please note, this will write over existing presets)
gunzip -c equalizers.xml.gz > ~/.config/banshee-1/equalizers.xml
3. Start Banshee, Goto View -> Equalizer and choose what preset you want to use.
or use the following single command
Or this one-liner:
wget -O - http://www.mikesplanet.net/files/equalizers.xml.gz | gunzip -c - > ~/.config/banshee-1/equalizers.xml

Great Tip Dude. I find the equalizers “THE” most compelling reason to move to Banshee. Why cant they have equalizer defaults shipped from the factory ??

I just discovered Banshee and am running it in Ubuntu. Wow! The only thing missing, as Beyboo observed above, was a lack of EQ presets bundled with the app. I hope the Banshee project maintainers resolve this somehow. However, I can confirm that these instructions work perfectly in Ubuntu 8.10 (the beta of which I am currently running).
Thanks a lot!

Yes, this is very nice. There are still a few things missing from banshee however, such as gapless playback. It is not as refined yet as Amarok, but I have finally been compelled to switch over.
